Imagine Joseph of Arimathea—the man who offered Jesus his own tomb—going home on the night of the crucifixion and telling his wife, “Honey, I need to tell you something… I gave my tomb away.” You can almost picture her staring back in disbelief: “Joseph, how could you do that? Do you know how much we paid to have that tomb carved out of the rock for us, for our family, for our children and grandchildren?”

But Joseph’s response would have been simple and confident: “Don’t worry. He’s only borrowing it. He’ll be out of there in three days."
